Few years ago I was worried on how the Valve will implement the CS to Xbox 360 and PS3. As a player of CS 1.6 and a fanatic of CS, this is very difficult to learn especially if you are a first timer. This was feature in the regular PC version meaning with all the mouse control and the sensitivity in order to control your soldier and aimed the enemy accurately. But during the Expo the Global Offensive on console is aiming accurately. The formula of the Xbox 360 and PS3 consoles are the same console formula of the PC version. Meaning you can take down your enemy same to the PC version.
I noticed something, because the time to play has limitation in Expo, although I’m a fan and a player of CS 1.6 version. I am not sure about this one it took a big amount of AK47 ammos to kill the enemy. This is a powerful weapon in CS 1.6 but the enemy is still up and the damage is not critical or maybe because I only have 30 to 40 minutes of gaming. I might have a poor aiming sight and took a big amount of ammos to fall down the enemy. The buying system in Global Offensive is in form of a visual wheel. This way you can buy your weapons very quickly and go to your tactical positions before the enemy.

The crosshair is different from the CS 1.6. Like me as a veteran player of CS 1.6 I won’t be enjoying using the crosshair. This is totally different from the PC version, if this is just the same the players will enjoy the moment of firing their enemies. This must be the reason why I am not able to aim fire, if ever I aimed the damage is less. In general, the new CS took me by surprise and I will wait until the d-day of Global Offensive release. I will be the first one who will enjoy the game.

Although it took the creators of the first Cars film five years to come up with a sequel and a follow up video game, it should not be viewed that the Cars was not at all interesting and unsuccessful.

On the contrary, the movie and the game turned out to be really something that are not just for the kids’ enjoyment, but as well as for the adults.

The video game, developed by Avalanche Software and published by Disney interactive goes beyond the normal race cars you’d see everywhere.

The game lets the player drive cars and race against the other cars. Though this may appear as simple, there is really more to the game than just racing.

Any kind and adult for that matter will probably like the game for its plot and mechanics.

But to appreciate Cars 2 video game, you have to look at things beyond the adult’s perspective for a highly complex and strategic game.

When playing something that has given kids joy from its line of Cars toys, Pyjamas, and clothes, you should leave all those childhood hesitancies and adult criticism, otherwise you won’t be able to gain fun from the whole experience.

However, you would need of course to look at the graphics and playability of the game still.

Cars 2 video game lets you start with the New Agent Training mode thereby allowing you to first get used to the basics of racing and the techniques for gaining lead positions in the race.

Perhaps it is more recommendable to watch the movie first before attempting to play the game.

Most developers of games based on movies usually have close tie-in with the movies thus the games would practically resemble the movie themselves. Although such predictability in the game can be bad for some gamers considering that there might not be any surprise plot anymore, with Cars 2, it’s just perfect.

Cars 2 video game can bring back the feel good factor that the movie gives to its viewers. This is exactly what one may really like to experience when one is playing the game for purposes of unwinding. If you have previously loved games like Mario Kart, then Cars 2 will just be as awesome for you.

Added factor to the game is the idea that the player can not only race, but can also use weapons during racing.

This is interesting because most kids would really love to have action when playing.

The specific toy weapons referred to here are guns and the graphics involved in the video game is definitely outstanding. Imagine an almost 3d like experience of shooting things through satellite lasers, missiles and other guns, all attached to the car character the player has chosen to use ion the game. A game with this quality would be something that any adult gamer should really love.

One of the races in the game is the scene for “When Life Gives You Lemons”.

This race is set on an oilrig and the movie scene this represents is the home of the “Lemons” or the cars in the movie that were considered to have problems when they were built.

What’s nice about this race is that at the start, the camera swings around your chosen car showing your car in a touch of motion blur and allowing you to take a full view of your car.

This is unlike other car races games where the player is just shown as the driver and the profile of the car is not seen at all.

The game by the way allows the player to choose from 25 car choices although majority of them would still need to be unlocked as the game goes on. Also, other than the racing, the player needs too to know ticks to gain turbo boost to win the game.

A Cars 2 fan will enjoy the game regardless of possible hitches. But there are really several reasons why a non fan will enjoy the game as well.

One of the many reasons would be the difficulty. Although it has been said earlier that the game is a no brainer, it technically gets difficult after a few stages.

The races become harder, requiring quick actions from the player. If you’re slow, you won’t be able to finish the game at all.

The additional extras in the game are drifting, energy turbos and collecting crests and badges.

Exciting actions that can be done too are driving through ten fruitstands in one of the races, drafting cars for five minutes, using fifteen turbos in a single event and hitting the chase car 25 times with the car weapons in the Survival Mode.

All these extras are an additional depth to the game, making the game a valuable rent for the hardcore adult gamers.

A hitch for the game however is it does not allow online multiplayer. Allowing the gamers to connect online would probably increase the game’s strength.

If online multiplayer is allowed, then the players will be able to compete with other gamers too.

A come on though for kid gamers is that they can play mini games like avoiding laser canons and collecting shields at the same time. This too comes from the scenes in the movie. And the gun firing may really be engaging for them.

All in all, Cars 2 video game can be an entertaining piece for both adult and kid gamer.

The hitch mentioned earlier can really be taken for granted, given that the game can give the solo player an amazing gaming experience.

If you’re a gamer and you think that Cars 2 is a blunder, you just might want to recheck your judgment and try playing the game first.

Today January 25, Bulletstorm reached the date of the demo on Xbox Live. This gives the starting gun for a year that promises to be exciting for the FPS. In addition, PlayStation Network users are assured that tomorrow will receive the demo. I know none of you have played yet, but it was definitely one of the funniest in which he had last year at E3. Get ready to kill with skill and desire to ridicule keys as soon as it is available for download. You will not be disappointed. The total size of the demo is 1.08 GB, and you can try the demo echo mode, where you can start enjoying Skillshot System, through which we can enjoy creative ways to kill enemies.

Bulletstorm is a game that goes back to the design philosophy of the old school in more than one sense. In the era of the modern “realistic” military shooter, Bulletstorm is blatantly unrealistic and over the top, more in line with games like Duke Nukem or Serious Sam, where are you, their weapons and thousands of enemies to kill so more and more ridiculous.

He is also obsessed with points, which seems strange in this day and age. How many times we laugh at the media describe as a GTA game in which he killed prostitutes “for points?” Silly news writers, this is not high score on Tetris or Frogger George Costanza – we have gone beyond the point! Bulletstorm just is not – covering the points and high scores on the heart.

The demo starts the player with three weapons – an assault rifle, a revolver and a grenade launcher that throws two bombs linked by a cord wrapped around any target they hit (either live or part of the environment), and can be detonated later. Each weapon also has a limited alternative fire attendants who, with a really cool effect, glowing bright red. The gun sets its targets on fire, and the grenade launcher (or “flingshot”) will slice through anything it touches like a circular saw.

As we all have words on Bulletstorm at E3 last year, not disapointed by this show, its value to download and start killing with skill. It will be released on February 22, 2011.

The latest generation iPod nano is hacked, a first step leading to a possible jailbreak. The sixth generation iPod nano was available in September this year and featured an operating system that seemed superficial IOS. Despite being a touchscreen device and supporting some of the same multitouch gestures in IOS was soon confirmed that the stamp-sized music player is running IOS. That has not stopped people from trying to jailbreak and change it to support additional apps. While not much success so far, a hacker by the name of James Whelton managed to keep the device home screen. That is not entirely successful, but it shows that true jailbreaking possible.

Under the hood, the mini-MP3 player is running an alternative operating system that is poked and prodded by the devs since its launch. To accomplish this hack, Whelton edited a plist file – also known as a “property list” – in Apple parlance is a file that stores information on various app settings. By a change in one file, James from an app’s icon from Springboard, the Nano’s home screen app, and added an empty space in his place. Although it seems that this simply appears Springboard Hack hides apps as opposed to outright remove them, this point is not entirely clear at this time.

Although the new nano is a variation on the traditional iPod OS running app development that does not mean impossible. Indeed, the original iPod comes with a version of breakout as an Easter egg and the fifth generation iPod, Apple began offering a smattering of games through the iTunes Store – games for the iPod Classic models can still be bought in this way . Unlike IOS, however, Apple never the tools made for iPod game development audience, choosing to work directly with game makers.

Wheaton also discovered some hidden features on the device, including support for Apps, vCard, calendar and more. Some of these hidden features, such as film and TV support, were originally spotted when the unit first landed on retail shelves. With a little time and effort, Wheaton hopes some of these hidden features to turn on iPod nano. For those interested in the Springboard hack, Wheaton promised to post additional information later this week. While you wait, check out his proof of concept video after the break.

We had reported the release of Creative’s 7-inch Ziio Tablet, now it’s going to review the both 10 and 7 inch tablets,

The display – although our time with the tablet showed that it was fine, it’s not going to win too many awards, principally because this is a resistive 1024×600 display – or 480×800 on the 7-inch version. This does, of course, impact heavily on performance. Although using a stylus with the screen helps, the screen is noticeably less responsive than its more expensive brethren.

It is using its own ZiiLabs ZMS-08 processor, and although the company is remaining coy on the processor’s speed, it certainly does not feel quite as nippy as some other Android tablets and phones. The tablet itself is light and feels well put together – the 7-incher weighs in at 400g, and its bigger 10-inch brother at 650g. Both of the tablets are the same width – at 13.7mm, and both are relatively comfortable to hold.

The Creative ZiiO 10-inch has room for an SD card (up to 32GB) and the 7-inch tablet has a microSD slot (also up to 32GB). Input wise, both have mini USB and 3.5 stereo jacks

Indeed, the first impression of the audio is certainly that it is outstanding – with the X-Fi audio enhancements and the proprietary media player from Creative playing a part.

Both tablets run a version of Android 2.1 – not ideal for tablets – and the company itself acknowledges that both will benefit greatly from the arrival of Android 2.2, which will be available as an over-the-air update or via PC.

The Creative ZiiO 7-inch is available in white and the 10-inch in black – which seems a little limiting. Overall, this is going to be an interesting test of the market. The creative ZiiO lacks some of the polished qualities of its tablet cousins, and the resistive screen will put many off.

But the price point is significant – this is a major chunk less cash to lay out than for an iPad, or even the Samsung Galaxy Tab, and it remains to be seen if consumers are prepared to accept a little less finesse for a lot less cash.

Creative has set the price for the 10-inch at £249.99 for an 8GB version and £269.99 for the 16GB version. For the smaller 7-inch version the prices are £199.99 (8GB) and £219.99(16GB).
